The Armenian Yard Long Cucumber, also known as the Armenian Light Green Serpent Cucumber and Armenian Burpless Cucumber is one of the most desireable cucumbers sought by gardeners due to it's excellent taste, huge size and unusual appearence. This variety produces light green colored, heavily ribbed fruit that range from 2 to 3 feet in length, with a diamter of approximately 3 inches! Despite it's huge size, the flavor remains excellent. Apart from it's huge size and unusual ribbed skin, it is also unusual in that if left to grow on the ground, it will grow into strange twisted shapes resembling a snake's coil, yet if grown on a trellis will grow straight. 

First introduced in 1870, a strong vine produces an abundance of very firm, old fashioned, dark green cucumbers that reach 10 to 12 inches in length that are ideal for using as slicing. Very disease resistant. Matures at 65 days. 

This is a great and much sought after variety of Cucumber. Sturdy, disease resistant vines produce an abundance of lemon shaped cucumbers that are of a yellow color. Easy to digest and never bitter, they can be eaten out of hand like an apple, sliced or pickled. Variety is rust and drought resistant. Introduced in the United States originally in 1894 by Crosman seeds of New York & Hayward, California (who were established in 1838 and who were believed to have found this cucumber variety in Australia). Crosman Seeds marketed the Lemon Cucumber well into the 1940's and described them as: 

"similar in appearance to a lemon and is used for pickling or the seeds can be removed and (the cucumber is) then stuffed with a relish. This cucumber is a boon to those who are distressed after eating the common cucumber as this fruit can be easily digested."

In guaging our customer's opinions about our seeds, our strain of Lemon Cucumbers were one of the best performers during 2002 and 2003! They performed marvelously for ourselves as well.
